On certain trucks, the front tire bead may have been damaged during vehicle assembly. Air may escape through a damaged bead into the tire between the cord and the outer rubber and cause a sidewall blowout or tread separation. Rapid air loss can adversely affect vehicle control and cause a crash. Correction: Dealers will replace affected tires.
